"This was my first year. I say 100% do it. The experience to me is made by the people. From Port Macquarie, from different areas...the people you hear, the ideas you get - just that feeling of inspiration you come out with. Whether you use it in the next day in an hour, a year... you may not think of it for another couple of years, but then you go ‘I heard that at Lumo’ and that may spark an idea that just snowballs.”

"This is my first time at Luminosity and it's already been like two of the best days of my life! I’ve met so many amazing people and I have just learnt so much from the speakers. They have a really genuine good energy to them and, like, I just really connected with a lot of them."

“Before this (Summit) I knew the statistics and everything about (how) people might have at least 30 jobs in a lifetime and all that. But... as the speaker’s have said, you feel pressured when you're younger to know what you want to do, and so I think that's what kind of led me (in the past). Like when I picked all my subjects to school, I wanted to be a nurse, and now I've changed that. And I know I'm going to change my mind and everything again, that's why I find it really inspiring here, and reassuring, knowing it’s ok for me to change my mind.”

"I admit I kept brushing off invites to the summit at my TAFE but a day before they persisted and I eventually gave in. This month had already been a month where I''ve been stuck so this event and the speakers have helped me spring out of this rut. I'm so incredibly thankful. Excited to live out my dream. Learning to be less scared and go!"

"I can honestly say that summit was the most gratifying and fulfilling event I have been a part of to date - the true joy of this experience was that it was shared and made possible through the energy and commitment of a gun team, made up of young, dynamic like minded, can do people - who all brought their individual skills and talents to this exciting event."
